Experiences of pregnant women and healthcare professionals of participating in a digital antenatal CMV education intervention.
Trial report in Midwifery, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveThe study aimed to explore the perspectives of participating pregnant women and Health Care Professionals (HCPs) towards receiving and providing cytomegalovirus (CMV) education so that barriers and facilitators towards incorporating CMV in routine antenatal care could be better understood.
designThis process evaluation phase employed a qualitative design using individual, semi-structured, face-to-face interviews.
settingRecruitment and interviews took place within a large teaching hospital from an ethnically diverse area of South-west London
participantsThe study sample included 20 participants: 15 pregnant women, and five HCPs. All participants were involved in a single centre randomized controlled trial of a digital CMV educational intervention in pregnancy.
findingsPregnant participants expressed a strong desire to receive information about CMV as part of routine antenatal care. Although HCPs were accepting of the need for CMV education, it was evident that they felt unequipped to provide this; reasons included lack of time, uncertainty about clinical pathways and concern about the potential emotive impact of CMV education. Pregnant women suggested that expressing behaviour changes as risk reduction rather than prevention, made the behaviours feel more achievable and realistic. The support of partners was considered a key factor in the successful adoption of behavioural changes by pregnant women. KEY CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE: There is an onus on HCPs to consider how CMV can be included as part of antenatal education, with messaging framed as risk reducing rather than prevention.
